I use to work on the team that maintains the webserver that serves Google websearch. google.com.eg (and any other google search domain) can be served out of many of Google's datacenters, in various places around the world. The user is sent to the "closest" data center that can serve their request, to minimize latency. Country-specific domains don't have to be served out of the local country (that would be pretty unmanageable, given the number of country specific domains Google has).
